Nutanix, HPE expand GreenLake deal to offer Nutanix Era on ProLiant servers
The new offering builds on a relationship that delivered an 80% year-on-year increase in ACV bookings for Q1
Nutanix and HPE have announced an expanded partnership, as the pair look to accelerate hybrid cloud and multicloud adoption.
The agreement will see Nutanix Era, a multi-database operations and management solution, bundled with HPE ProLiant servers and delivered as a service through HPE GreenLake.
The fully managed cloud service enables customers to deploy applications and databases in minutes, as well as benefit from the perks of both the cloud and on-premises environments, the pair said.
“Customers want to simplify database operations and management to move away from IT siloes that can often lead to higher maintenance costs, security risks, and lack of flexibility to deploy and run solutions,” explained Keith White, senior vice president and general manager, HPE GreenLake Cloud Services at HPE.
“By building on our successful collaboration with Nutanix, together the HPE GreenLake and the Nutanix Era database operations and management software solution will increase agility, simplify operations and cut costs by delivering a fully managed cloud offering.”
Nutanix says customers using its Era solution reported experiencing a 97% increase in the speed of database provisioning, a reduction in unplanned downtime that helped avoid average losses of $35,000 per hour, a decrease in the storage requirements for copies and backups by 60%, and a reduction in database administrators’ overtime work by 50%.
By combining Nutanix Era on HPE ProLiant servers and delivering the solution as a cloud service via HPE GreenLake, customers can leverage the cloud-ready platform to modernise, consolidate, and automate tasks across their databases.
They can also gain support for multi-database operations management, including Oracle Database, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, PostgresSQL and MariaDB.
The collaboration builds on the existing HPE GreenLake with Nutanix partnership, which has generated an approximate 80% year-on-year increase in ACV bookings during Q1, the pair revealed.
“We continue to see tremendous success in our partnership, and HPE GreenLake with Nutanix Era for databases provides one more opportunity to strengthen our joint offerings and further serve customers,” said Tarkan Maner, chief commercial officer at Nutanix.
“As customers are looking for solutions to help them in their journey to hybrid and multicloud, HPE and Nutanix deliver strong, integrated solutions to support them on their journey by providing performance, control, and security available as a full breadth of portfolio whether it’s solely using HPE ProLiant DX series of servers for private clouds or combining with HPE GreenLake cloud services to run this environment as a managed cloud.”
